By the way, hari ini ujan deras banget di Jakarta. At least Jakarta Selatan deh daerah Tebet-Pancoran-Kuningan hehehehehehe. Jadi malas buat kemana-mana, molor ajah di kamar. Nonton Onmyoji 2 yang dibintangi Kyoko Fukada dan Hayato Ichihara, trus anime Now and Then, Here and There, Conflict and Chaos (panjang banget judulnya :P) Nonton Total Football. Trus nonton Tsubasa di RCTI. Jepang juara piala dunia yunior setelah mengalahkan Jerman 😛

Sehabis maghriban ternyata Indosiar masih acara menjelang konser afi (apa lah namanya, pokoknya liputan gitu deh). N6600 bersiul-siul tanda SMS, gue kirain dari siapa ternyata cuman Notification Report traffic AFI 3977 hari ini. Omong-omong tentang AFI, salut buat Adit and Ve. Sebagai sesama Arema, saya angkat jempol deh buat kalian. Di saat negara kita lagi bobrok n krisis kaya gini di mana anak-anak mudanya (apa lagi di Jakarta) banyak yang jadi preman tapi kalian bisa berprestasi bagus. Pa lagi Adit, heheheheh faktor background keluarga kita mirip sih, n pas dia di eliminasi bisa tegar kaya gitu. Salut abis deh.

Nah bagaimana dengan pre-eliminasi malam ini ? Ga tau yah, pas aku ngetik di T22 ku saat ini, Indosiar sedang ber-film India Ria heheheheh 😛 Jadi switch ke TransTV nonton Bajaj Bajuri. Hasil AFI1 menurutku sih “mengecewakan” dari sisi kemampuan vokal pemenangnya. Hehehehehe yang konser terbuka seminggu setelah final kelihatan banget deh suaranya pada ancur-ancuran. Pas AFI2, komentator nya sempet bilang bahwa penonton dah mulai bisa milih mana yang bisa nyanyi sehingga 12 orang yang terpilih performance nya lebih bagus. Dan pemenang AFI2, Tia ga diragukan lagi emang kualitas vokalnya.

Nah kalo AFI3 ? I think it’s much better. Why ? Coz the 12 (is it still 12 ?) people who will be selected as akademia are choosen by the judges. Yah kita lihat sama-sama ajah penampilan mereka malam ini. Eh, gue kayanya ga liat ding, mo nerusin coding SMS-to-Blogger lagi 🙂

Mwah Rara 😛 Nanti kalo dah final version, tester beta pertama kamu deh 🙂 Eh, nuy dah punya Sweet Dreams nya Jang Nara + liriknya. Masih mau ? Ambil di URL biasanya yah 🙂

Indonesian Idol Friday July 9, 2004 have sent Winda home. Kayanya sih show kemarin lebih semarak dari Jum’at minggu kemarin (2/7). Cuman kok pesertanya pada nyanyiin lagu-lagu lama, yang dirilis mungkin saat para peserta baru lahir. Hehehehehehehehe, mo bikin kesan 70s or 80s gitu kali yah.

Tapi yang jadi perhatianku masalah traffik SMSnya, kok patternnya malah turun banyak dibanding Jum’at minggu lalu (2/7) yah ? Padahal perkiraan malah akan naik ? EGP, ah. I just make sure that my system is running well, and it is. No problem at all. So, it’s the broadcaster job to re-package the show with batter … package 😛 They forget that most of Indonesian people like to watch the package as the first option.

Wow it’s work.
My SMS-Blogger module is working. Yeah … but where’s the title 🙁 Why Blogger API 1.0 doesn’t have field for title 🙁

This is a test from Nokia 6600

What do you think about that ? I have think about that since the first day i registered my self to blogger.com. July 4th, 2004 (US Independece Day :P). Blogger Developers Network section catched my attention. Coz I’m a developer too hehehehehhehe. I’ve read the whole section. Atom and the API is interesting, but that’s not what I was looking for. It is Blogger APIBlogger API. This API is the thing I need to realize my plan. This API also I believe is being used by blogger client like w.bloggar to everything you type in the bloggar form to your blog site without login directly to blogger.comblogger.com. Although that API will not be supported anymore by blogger.com team coz they’ll now developing new robust API along with another blogging industry, Blogger API is the basic. That’s the point. And of course, I hope the new API can be published as soon as it finished. I’m waiting for that, coz there’s more than 80 blog provider have joined to make it happen. Open standard API for 23 Polls to XHP – eXpandable Home Page, including blogger.comBlogger, LiveJournal, HaloScan Commenting and so on.

Protocols
The Blogger APIBlogger API is currently implemented for XML-RPC. There may be others some day.

Methods
These are the available methods:
blogger.newPost: Makes a new post to a designated blog. Optionally, will publish the blog after making the post.
blogger.editPost: Edits a given post. Optionally, will publish the blog after making the edit.
blogger.getUsersBlogs: Returns information on all the blogs a given user is a member of.
blogger.getUserInfo: Authenticates a user and returns basic user info (name, email, userid, etc.).
blogger.getTemplate: Returns the main or archive index template of a given blog.
blogger.setTemplate: Edits the main or archive index template of a given blog.

Hmmm, hehehehhehehehe *grin*. Later I could posting my blog anywhere without connecting to the internet 🙂

Inget Indonesian Idol jadi inget Rara. Iyah, dia ga pernah ngirim formulir apapun, bahkan alamat pendaftaran audisi ajah ga tau eh tiba-tiba ada satu amplop gede surat undangan audisi Indonesian Idol datang ke rumahnya. Tapi audinya di Jakarta sementara Rara di Makassar 😛 Well anyway, RCTI kayanya ingin mengekor kesuksesan AFI-nya Indosiar yang mampu menduduki tangga rating (bukan lagu) acara TV favorit pemirsa. 2 sekuelnya sukses berat, dan bikin gue kerja berat juga tiap Sabtu. Pop Stars ga gitu “greng” di TransTV, tapi AFI langsung heboh sejak mendekati final di episode pertamanya. AFI2 langsung menggebrak sejak peserta mulai tinggal 10 orang. Yang gue maksud di sini adalah dari traffik SMS yang masuk untuk voting.

Bagaimana dengan Indonesian Idol ?

Kalau melihat antusiasnya masyarakat Indonesia waktu menyaksikan American Idol yang di babak final menyuguhkan Clay Aiken vs Ruben Studdard, pihak penyelenggara berharap bisa meraup untung dari SMS lebih dari apa yang didapat oleh Indosiar+Visitel lewat AFI1+AFI2. 1 Million SMS in just 2 hours. In Indonesia. Come on… Awalnya gue cuman bisa bengong ala Kenshin “Ara? 1 jeti in 2 hours?”
Razi just smilin.

Show pertama, acara pre-eliminasi kalo di AFI garing abis. Tapi krn promo di RCTI lumayan gencar, traffiknya juga lumayan. Adi Infokom sampe kaget liat traffik yang begitu tinggi dibanding aplikasi infokom lainnya. Gue cuman bisa nyeletuk “Cak, segitu sih masih rata-rata. Belum tinggi hehehehehe”. Tapi yang jelas dari Telkomsel porsinya hampir 60%. Jum’at ke-2, ke-3 dan seterusnya traffiknya terjun bebas. Drop abis ? Why ? Karena acaranya garing. Mending lihat ulasan Euro2004. Aku sih dah ngomong ke Adi Infokom buat ubah format acaranya. Oke lah sistem votingnya tetap jam 8-10, tapi harus ada bumbu diluar itu. Mestinya berkaca ama sukses Indosiar mengemas AFI, jangan idealis pake bilang kalo Idol itu segmennya buat kalangan menengah ke atas. Kalo AFI tuh krn berasal dari La Academia Mexico, negara berkembang maka targetnya = kalangan menengah ke bawah. Bullshit. Presiden Indonesia ajah kalah terkenal vs Veri AFI. Capres ajah rela jual malu buat numpang nampang kampanye di final AFI2.

Menjelang spektakuler show di balai sarbini, RCTI sepertinya mulai menyisipkan slide-slide tentang profile 11 orang yang akan muncul di sana. Tentang peserta cewe yang dengan kemampuan vokalnya bisa sampe ke luar negeri, atau ada yg dulu pengurus osis dll dll dll. Hasilnya ? Jum’at 2 Juli kemarin, show pertama di balai sarbini bisa dibilang sukses. Traffik SMS pun melonjak drastis sampe 30x dari Juma’at seminggu sebelumnya walo masih di bawah show awal 28 Mei 2004 yang lalu.

Bagaimana dengan hari ini ?

I dont know, and I dont care about the show. I just hope SMS traffic will be increase, better than a week ago. And I have to make sure that data transfer from Telkomsel – So Close, So RealTelkomsel to Infokom is running well. Why ? Coz at least 50% of voters are Telkomsel – So Close, So RealTelkomsel‘s subscribers. Like it or not, we provide the best infrastructure for these kind of shows. Every Saturday, I monitor the AFI traffic with the AFI’s content provider. They said SATC is the worse, lack of support. There’s nobody answer the call when problems happen. Their traffic is not quite big also 😛

In my opinion, Indonesian Idol singers are more talented than AFI. That’s the fact and that’s why AFI3 did something different in the pre-elimination stage. 12 people who will go to the next round will be chosen by the judges, not the viewers. So, I hope – and maybe they hope also- that everybody who will go to the next round is qualified.

We’ll see

You know all the things i’ve said
You know all the things that we have done
And things I gave to you
If there’s a chance for me to say
How precious you are in my life
And you know that is true

To be with you is all that I need
Coz with you my life seems brighter
and these are all the things I wanna say

I will fly into your arms
And be with you till the end of time
Why are you so far away
You know it’s very hard for me to get my self close to you

You’re the reason why I stay
You’re the one who can not believe
Our love will never end
Is it only in my dream ?
You’re the one who can not see this
How could you be so blind

To be with you is all that I need
Coz with you my life seems brighter
And these are all the things I wanna say
